What’s the process you use when starting one of these mashups? Are you just surfing the web? Is there an idea before you start one? does it flesh out as it goes?
Do you want to pursue showing them publicly all together?
Well, sir, the process is much like everything else I do– very improvised, exploratory, putting elements together to see what happens, 1 + 1 =3 stuff.
There are some great resources on youtube, great collections of vintage or rare sounds and music. I rely on those a great deal. Those are like great playgrounds.
This particular mesh came from thinking of making a linking of several different common actions (man opens door, walks thru, someone enters adjacent vid as if it was the same person walks across and it continues to the next vid). Very difficult to find the elements to pull that one off but i I am trying. Its pretty much the first one with any preconception happening. In the meantime, my research pulled up a lot of these kids playing with aftereffects and i couldnt resist..
And yes, i am researching ways to present them in different venues, the interactive aspect is important to retain tho.
jeez sorry so long winded!
great. thanks for the reply and a glimpse inside the process.
i can’t wait to see what you do with them to show them publicly.
I could see that being the cat’s meow.
